“Just the Job”



“Only a few hundred yards from the a1 but quiet. The cottage was comfortable and well kept and ideal for us to spend a quiet time after days out. Everything was in good order and much information on local area. It was nice to relax on the comfortable sofa or chair aqnd you could sit out in the garden in the "sunshine" (yes we did).”

“We found the cottage very well located for our needs. very clean, and well maintained.
Garden could have been a bit less overgrown, but ok for just sitting outside and enjoying a BBQ”

“Our sunny week in Apple Tree Cottage”



“We had stayed in this cottage a few years before. We noticed that the cottage had different owners (as the guest book did not go back beyond 18 months, so our previous review was not in the book). The cottage was comfortable, but not so welcoming as previously (I believe on arrival we had a welcome bowl of fruit, milk and bread previously). The garden was overgrown, whereas before it had been well looked after, and when we contacted the owners about a small issue (recycling food) they seemed annoyed that we had called. Despite this, we had a lovely stay and I would recommend this cottage as a good base for exploring the Northumberland coast.”

“Apple Tree Cottage Fenwick”



“The cottage was attractive and situated for easy access to Lindisfarne and other attractions in the area. It was well appointed with everything provided to give us a comfortable holiday.”

“peace & quiet”



“The property was found on an efficient and easy to use website. On arrival we found the cottage tucked away in a quiet villge yet just off the A1. This gave a quiet stay but within reach of lots of local places to visit. The cottage is old but well updated and modernised with lots of equipment and also helpful literature about local amenities.
Nearby Berwick-on-Tweed is an interesting town where you can easily spend a whole day in museums in shops and in walking and seeing the riverside scenery.
Holy Island is atmospheric but you need to time your visit carefully beause of the tides.
The coast is easy to drive along and the scenery with its castles every now and again is often spectacular.
The only difficult aspect of the cottage was car parking - not much space and if it rains a quick run to the car is needed.
Otherwise the peace and quiet was welcome.”

Customer reviews

“Location of cottage is very good for seeing many of the coastal sights in Northumberland.”

Mrs Tyrrell, Bury St. Edmunds, September 2014

“The cottage is an ideal base to explore the area being so close to the A1 not that you could hear the traffic. We had a long weekend at the cottage and visited Bamburgh Castle, Holy Island and Berwick upon Tweed. Having barely scratched the the surface we will be back for week next time. We instantly felt at home in the the cottage and particularly enjoyed the garden.”

Mr Thomson, Castleford, May 2014

“Apple Tree Cottage is a perfect family retreat set in a great location to access the area.”

Mrs Elves, Sunderland, October 2013

“The cottage was comfortable and my wife and I enjoyed a very pleasant stay there visiting the local area. Bamburgh village and castle, Alnwick Castle Lindisfarne/Holy Island - all places spectacular and a must to visit.”

Mr Evans, Halesowen, September 2013

“The cottage is very quiet and in a small village but with easy access to the A1. Consequently moving around and going up and down the coast was easy. We found the cottage comfortable and had an enjoyable week there. Plenty of information on things to do and a good supply of maps.”

Mrs Harris, Sevenoaks, September 2013

“Lovely, clean, pretty cottage with a lovely garden. Northumberland is a great place to holiday.”

Mrs Ward, Halstead, June 2013

“The cottage was cosy, clean, with clear instructions given as to the whereabouts things were. We loved our stay, great for bird watching, close to amenities, we would recommend the boat trip around the Farne islands. Will definitely come back!”
